NEW SON Rich and Mary Yager are now the parents of a new addition to their clan. Adam Joseph was born on July 28 at Memorial Hospital in Woodstock. The new little Yager came into this world weighing 7 lbs., 4 oz., and was 20 inches long. Mary says she is overwhelmed with Adam's popularity already, since he has been receiving so many nice cards! REMEMBERING BACK We had a very interesting visit with Alex Justen last week who stopped by to give me some information about "old times" in Wonder Lake. Alex spends the winter months in Florida and last winter stopped in to see Harry and Anna Mae Rotert who reside in Clearwater. They started to reminisce about Wonder Lake and came, up with many in­ teresting things. How many of these names do you remember? Louis Schroeder built the main roads with a horse drawn road grader. A little bit of a difference from the modern equipment we see today! There was a baseball team that played regular games somewhere around the Old Mill Inn. Andy Hawley, son of Ringwood butcher, Louis Hawley, was the pitcher. All mail was gathered at the Ringwood post office, then later, Jay Cristy, Sr., became the rural route mailman through Wonder Lake. After his death, his brother, Kenneth Cristy, became the rural route mailman. The Wonder Lake post office was established in 1980 with Art Hayes serving as the first postmaster. Some names that were well known in our com­ munity "way back when" include residents like: Maynard Rutledge of the American Box Car Corp.; Epfried Jacobson and F. Art Gilbert, who were the original developers of Wonder Lake; Tony Piet, who was a Chicago White Sox baseball player, and is now a car dealer in Chicago; Pat Flanagan, a Chicago Cubs radio announcer who lived on East Lake Shore drive across from one of the islands that became known as Flanagan's Island since he talked so much about Wonder Lake on the radio, Ivar Fredrickson who owned a construction company building homes around the community. Working for him were Martin Weber, Wally Larson, and Leo Sales; Charles Burton, of the Federal Electric co., and Mr. A. Barnett who was a Pepsi Cola executive. There were a few establishments that are no longer around. Did you ever go for a horseback ride from Roy "Jockey" Harrison's Riding Stables? They were located right across the street from the Old Mill Inn. What is now an empty lot next to the Marina, was once a beautiful restaurant, owned by A1 Horn, then Art and Edna LaGreca and finally being called the Wharf before it burned down. Mr. Rotert, who reached the marvelous age of 91 on his last birthday, Feb. 22, is a great source of Wonder Lake history and is in the process of putting together a scrap book of Wonder Lake.

AUGUST 12,1981 Increase It is predicted that mobile homes will represent about one out of every six new housing units in North Carolina in 1985. Because Oak trees throughout the country are infested with oak leaf miner, Erin Hynes, Extension adviser, Agriculture, for McHenry county, has issued this statement: "Fret not, since this pest causes more aesthetic * than health damage". The symptoms of an oak leaf miner attack are easy to see. The leaves are covered with large, pale, irregular brown bloches. On closer inspection, the upper layer of leaf tissue is separated from the lower layer. The dry tissue resembles an onionskin. With this year's heavy infestation, many leaves are dying and falling from the tree. The oak leaf miner is the maggot stage at several small fly species. These flat maggots feed on the mesophyll layer, between the upper It lower epidermal layers of the leaf. The epidermal layers then brown and - die, leaving the characteristic damage. Despite the highly visible damage, oak leaf minors very rarely reach high enough numbers to seriously harm a tree. Trees may totaUy lose their foliage and still recover, although a defoliating infestation is uncommon. • 1 r To help reduce the leaf miner population for next year, rake up and destroy fallen leaves in which the larvae over-winter. In­ secticides have little effect in controlling the miner, unless applied when the flies are laying eggs in the spring. Considering the cost and environmental effects of spraying, cleaning up fallen leaves is the best approach. Residents of communities that have been sprayed for gypsy moth and mosquitoes have expressed concern that spraying is encouraging leaf miner infestations. This contention has no basis; rest easy & rake this fall. Church is one place you can always get some­ thing for nothing. PARAGUARDIANS The Illinois Guardianship and Advocacy commission has been awarded a grant from the Illinois Department on Aging to employ older persons as "paraguar- dians," or guardian assistants, according to GAC, Director, Sandra G. Nye. The paraguardians will assist the Office of State Guardians guardianship staff in establishing in­ terpersonal relationships with OSG wards who reside in both institutional and community settings. Older persons interested in ap­ plying for the paraguardian positions should write the Guardianship and Advocacy commission, 123 W. Madison street, Chicago, IU. 60602.
